RJChicago 14 Report post Posted August 17, 2019 Hello all, I'd love to know what you all think the best NCAA championship matches of all-time are? Obviously, Gable/Owings (I think that was his name Owings or Ownings) is a famous one. One of the best I've ever seen was Kyle Snyder beating I can't remember who - in overtime I believe - after his red shirt was pulled late in the season. 1 Mphillips reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scribe 1,824 Report post Posted August 17, 2019 Dake v Taylor was a pretty thrilling matchup but probably not greatest of all time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scribe 1,824 Report post Posted August 17, 2019 Rohn lambrecht is often cited but that was just a stunner. Schultz v Banach 1 Bombermule reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MDogg 273 Report post Posted August 17, 2019 IMO the ncaa finals match with the most thrilling/heartbreaking ending was Dan Dennis-Jayson Ness. I’ll never forget that look on Brands face. I think Dake/Taylor was most anticipated or highest profile finals match of all time, but not necessarily the best. Imar/Nolf is probably my favorite finals match of the past 5-6 years. 1 powershouse reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All the hype of Banach "going for FOUR" - when he was not yet a 3 time champion. Schultz went up a weight specifically to beat him. Then he did just that - like a rented mule. Lots of action and a match to watch if you want someone to see wrestling with passion and excitement. 1 Peso reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dsims1010 7 Report post Posted August 18, 2019 Some of my most memorable going back to 1999: Dake /Taylor because of the names attached to it. So much anticipation, plus enough action to make it a good match. Caldwell/Metcalf : There was no way I saw Caldwell beating the crap out of Metcalf Ness finish was unbelievable Coleman pin just electrified the crowd Rohn/Lambrecht - (biggest turn of events, plus I was sitting in OU section a few rows above Lambrecht's dad. UC Davis kid who just kept getting the tilts. 1 RealAmericanHero reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
